Default Replace LEDS on back of gauge cluster.

Hey guys i have a question

I bought a cluster with a tach for my Dx however only the 2 amber bulbs on the top are working so the rest of the cluster is not backlit i removed the cluster and found a lot of small leds . will replacing there fix it or is it a common problem?
I called the dealer they want 85 buckes for all the leds

if your running leds instead of the stock lights you should run a resistor in searies of the led so it dosent burn out. If you just plug in the led where the light is they will burn out quilckly. To find what resistor you need fallow ohms law (R=(Vs-Vl)/I). You should be abel to buy led at any good electronic store. Just go through the phone book
